Sonja’s Bio

There are many ways to make a difference in someones life - one way to be significant is to take care of, educate, raise, learn & laugh with children. I am looking forward to be in the position again, to help facilitate the developmental growth of a child and lead this child through challenges with kindness. My professional life has broadened my skill-set to include extensive hands-on and academic experience in childcare, teaching tutoring and household management. I have a lot of patience, compassion, a can-do-attitude, energy and look forward to building a meaningful relationship with the right family.

I have recent full-time and part-time experience with a Dr. couple in the Twin Cities who would be happy to be a reference. I have helped raise their children from the very beginning and have traveled with them & cared for the children overnights.
